I know that on Election Day, no alcoholic beverages can be sold. Does anyone know if anything else is prohibited or closed?

The 'bootleggers' (who are a no no) love election weekend. The entrepreneurial spirit shines on and taxi drivers know where to find them. I've always felt sorry for tourists who arrive and don't know about the antiquated 'dry law', though some years there seems to be exceptions in the tourist zone. And it's a serious bummer to have a birthday on election day. Ah well, where there's a will, there's a way.
